Sevastopol Employees Honor Veterans Day by Participating in GI Go Fund’s “Jeans For Troops” Dress Down Day

Posted on 11/08/2017

Sevastopol Employees honored Veterans Day and the men and women who have served our country by raising funds for military veterans and their families.

On November 8, 2017, employees took part in the 2017 Jeans for Troops fundraising drive benefiting GI Go Fund, a nonprofit organization that helps veterans returning home find employment, access their health care and financial benefits, and link to housing.

During the drive, which has schools, companies, and organizations from across the country participating in, Sevastopol gave their employees the opportunity to wear jeans to work in exchange for a $5 donation to GI Go Fund.

GI Go Fund is an organization that has been supporting military families for more than a decade, providing veterans with innovative ways of finding employment, securing their educational and health benefits, as well as providing aid and assistance to low income and homeless veterans. Since their founding, the organization has helped tens of thousands of veterans improve their lives and give them the capacity to provide and care for their loved ones.

In addition, the organization does tremendous work for veterans who struggle with financial difficulties, hosting events to get veterans housed, as well as providing emergency financial assistance to those who need it most.
